PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder affecting women of reproductive age, characterized by insulin resistance, elevated androgens, and ovulatory dysfunction. PCOS is a leading cause of infertility and increases risk for metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Functional medicine addresses the root metabolic and hormonal imbalances to restore ovulation, balance hormones, and improve long-term health outcomes.
